    This story touches a special chord with me: I was the Doctor last Halloween, and Dr. Horrible the one before that. Anyway, I hope these two crazy kids work it out!

    This ad sounds like the plot to the movie SERENDIPITY, and if she was as hot as Kate Beckinsale was in that movie, it'd be worth tracking her for the next five years.

    artificial insemination
    stem-cell eggless babies
    hybred sperm and surogacy
    adoption
    non-traditional adoption
    and that man on oprah was pregnant

    then we can go quantum and multiverse theories...

    I thought something similar and just had to accept that even if I was a lesbian, and even if I ran in her circle, I would never have a shot with her.

    so this is the girl who posted the ad on craigslist .. and I'd like to thank you for my newfound internet celebrity status. I will gladly send a picture to anyone requesting it. Also, the reason there is no pic is because this is a way of filtering out those who respond based on the picture alone vs. reading the ad.

    I'm sorry io9, as ridiculous as this Craigslist post is, why did you post it? Are we seriously so date-starved/lacking-in-girls-who-appreciate-Sci-Fi, that when one posts a personal asking about it, it makes a spot on your blog?


    Good Lord, show some pride. If things are that desperate, go to the bar and pretend to be into football. You know you'll just grab the new BSG episode when it shows up on news-groups on the east coast anyhow.
